| Abstract | ||
| Background: In the Thermafil system little is known about the effect that varying rates of insertion have on theadaptability of thermoplasticized GP and the amount of apical extrusion.Materials and methods: thirty simulated root canals were obturated with thermafil obturators and Apexit Plus sealerat three different insertion rates. The obturated canals were sectioned at three different levels, the sealer averagefilm thickness for each section was calculated and the amount of apical extrusion for each canal was conducted.Results: the higher adaptability was seen with the faster insertion rate while the slower insertion rate showed fewertendencies to cause apical extrusion.Conclusions: the intermediate insertion rate had the best results between the other two rates for both adaptabilityand apical extrusion.Key words: insertion rate, adaptability, apical extrusion.
